The ND5 swingarm doesn't use bushings and plates like MC16 and MC18, and is closer to what the MC28 uses on the pro-arm.
Since MC28 links were ridiculous money, I got the link from a YZF-R1 and mounted it up with some washers. The shock wasn't a concern since I was going to use the R1 shock anyways, but I doubt that the HRC shock would fit the 25mm width of the R1 link, since IIRC NSR shocks were 35mm when I was researching
